J.P. Morgan Asset Administration released its 2016 Long-term Capital Markets Assumptions (LTCMA) whitepaper, a carefully formulated, comprehensive perspective on long-term asset class returns and risks designed to guide investors when determining, reviewing and analyzing their planned portfolio allocations. The LTCMA, celebrating its 20th anniversary, are constructed by some of the firm’s most senior investors and present long-term return, risk and correlation estimates that encompass more than 50 asset and strategy classes, and are published for investors in 10 different base currencies.

The whitepaper is broken down into five sections counting a Foreword, Executive Summary, Thematic Articles, Assumption Articles and Data Matrices. The Thematic section analyzes a number of market trends and planned asset allocation issues through articles that address the future of regulation, the private equity premium, modeling and managing fat-tailed market risks, and the evolution and current state of emerging markets equity. The Assumptions section explores factors, principles and reasoning underlying the firm’s projections from an overall macroeconomic perspective before taking a deep dive into specific asset classes, counting fixed income, equities, alternatives and foreign exchange. Key findings comprise:

  • Macro Overview — The backdrop for this year’s LTCMAs is best described as an environment of steady inflation and subdued long-term growth in the face of very divergent cyclical starting points across economies globally.
  • Major Asset Class Assumptions — Changes to our assumptions year-over-year are nuanced and comprise: a deteriorating outlook for U.S. Treasury returns; improving but, in nominal return terms, still uninspiring public and private equity market return expectations; and relatively more attractive assumptions for credit, value added real estate and infrastructure.
  • Implications — Based on a synthesis of results across our full dataset of over 50 asset classes, we find that the outlook for the 60% equity/40% fixed income investor has improved slightly, in terms of risk-adjusted returns. At the same time, the efficient frontier has rotated counterclockwise, in a way that suggests the predictable return for relatively safer assets have fallen further, while the predictable return for riskier assets has improved, relative to last year.
